Intake

Capture migraine trigger profile, medication history, and symptom patterns during intake calls

New migraine patients often give fragmented histories across multiple calls. Structured AI intake asks about triggers, prior medications, aura patterns, comorbidities, and prior diagnostics in one conversation — and returns a formatted summary for clinicians to file.

How it pays back

Clinicians see the full migraine picture before first appointment

Instead of asking the same questions across multiple visits, your neurologist has a comprehensive intake summary capturing triggers, medication trials, symptom patterns, and comorbidities. First visit productivity increases because history-taking is done.

Trigger identification happens faster

Structured questions about timing, environment, hormonal cycles, dietary factors, and stress patterns surface trigger clusters that patients might not volunteer unprompted. Your team can design preventive strategies faster.

Medication failure patterns are documented consistently

Prior migraine medications, dosages, duration of trial, and reasons for discontinuation are captured systematically — not as scattered patient memories. This guides your prescribing and reduces trial-and-error cycles.

New patients are better prepared for their first appointment

Patients who give a thorough phone intake feel heard and prepared. They know the practice takes migraine seriously, and clinicians can use appointment time for clinical examination and treatment planning rather than history repetition.

Frequently asked questions

What specific migraine questions are included in the AI intake?

The intake covers: migraine frequency and duration, pain location and intensity, aura symptoms (visual, sensory, motor), associated symptoms (nausea, photophobia, phonophobia), known triggers (stress, hormones, foods, sleep, caffeine, weather), prior medications and responses, family history, comorbid conditions (anxiety, depression, sleep disorders), prior imaging or neurology workup, and current preventive strategies.

How does this data get into the patient chart?

The AI captures responses and returns a structured summary to your staff. Your clinical team reviews the summary, verifies accuracy, and files it into the patient's chart. This becomes the documented intake and is ready for the clinician to reference at the first appointment.

Can the AI ask about hormonal triggers for women with migraine?

Yes. The system can ask about menstrual cycle timing, oral contraceptive use, hormone replacement, and correlation of migraine with cycle phases. This is especially important for menstrual migraine identification and preventive strategy planning.

What if the patient doesn't remember medication names or dosages?

The AI asks patients to describe the medication (color, shape, indication), approximate dosage if known, and how long they took it. Your staff can research the specific medication and update the chart. Approximate information is still more useful than fragmented memories across multiple calls.

Does this replace the clinician's intake assessment?

No. This is a preliminary structured summary to save clinician time and ensure nothing is missed. The clinician still reviews the summary, asks clarifying questions, and documents their formal intake assessment at the first appointment. This system just ensures the clinician has complete baseline data before the visit.
